Our Mission
The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church. Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.

Ministry History
The Salvation Army is a branch of the Christian Church with social ministries spanning the globe. Founded in 1865 by William Booth in London, England, The Salvation Army challenged the complacency of Christian churches by forging a tradition of compassionate response to the poor and disenfranchised among us. Following the example of Christ, The Salvation Army believes that worship, witness and service are inseparable. While church membership is not a prerequisite for receiving services, all are encouraged and welcome to attend our churches and to take part in our many spiritual ministries.

To find a Salvation Army Church near you, simply refer to this list of church locations. You are warmly invited to visit us for services on Sunday. Or drop by any day of the week during hours of business to speak with the Pastors (called Corps Officers) for information about ways to get involved and learn more.

Prayer Requests
You are warmly invited to share with us your personal concerns so that we can lift them up to God in prayer. Your identity will be kept in confidence as your prayer request is shared during a weekly prayer session of Salvation Army Officers and lay staff. We are glad to serve you through the powerful medium of prayer, and believe that God hears our every intercession on your behalf.
